AUTUMN AND WINTER SOWING 
Seeds of certain hardy perennials, and of many bulbs, 
shrubs and trees, seem to need a period of exposure to 
low soil temperatures in order to put them in shape to 
germinate. The best way to handle such seeds is to sow 
them in open g-ound seed-beds, or in cold-frames, in late 
autumn, October or November, but in regions with mild 
winters, or elsewher2 whenever the ground thaws for a 
few cCays, the sowings may continue during December, 
January and February with excellent results. 
FOR LATE AUTUMN SOWING 
Here are seeds of herbaceous perennials, and of bulbs, 
shrubs. vines and trees that can be sown out-of-doors in 
late autumn, germination to be expected in spring. All 
of these may also be sown at first possible moment in 
spring with fair chance of success, but most of them are 
a bit surer if sown in late autumn. A few species have 
been included that may quite definitely be sown to equal 
advantage in late autumn or in spring so far as ease of 
germination is concerned, but of course by fall-sowing one 
gains a little time in bringing them on to blooming size.
